In this detailed guide we will walk you through how to install the Linux-distribution Ubuntu on your PlayStation 3 console. Please be noted that you will need about 10GB free for this to work, so it does not really pay to have an alternate OS if you are on a stock 40GB PS3 model. To update your hard drive in the PS3 please follow this guide: How to upgrade your PlayStation 3 Hard Drive.

Requirements

There is not much necessary for this guide but the most important is the actual UbuntuPS3 release, currently in version 7.10.
